An Evening with Tomson Highway

Friday, May 12, 2017

Patricia Cano, vocals
Marcus Ali, saxophone
Tomson Highway, piano

PROGRAM

Mr. Highway presents songs from five of his shows produced across Canada (and beyond) over the years. As follows, they are:

The Sage, the Dancer, and the Fool
Rose
The Incredible Adventures of Mary Jane Mosquito
The (Post) Mistress
Songs in the Key of Cree

What makes his songwriting (and piano playing) unique is that he writes cabaret that betrays the influences of such world artists
as Cole Porter and Kurt Weil ... but with Cree lyrics ...
